The Biblical Hebrew Word “Torah” Defined

Posted on by

Most Christians have never heard of the word “Torah” before, or if they have, they vaguely connect somehow to Orthodox religious Judaism without understanding its significant biblical connection or how it relates to them. The word “Torah”, or its linguistic counterparts, figure prominently in the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, and was referred to countless times by Yeshua and his disciples. Therefore, it is vitally important to understand the true meaning of this word and how it affects your walk as a Christian.

Of Frail Men and a Faithful Elohim—The Torah Roots of Your Salvation

Can I let you in on a little secret that will empower you spiritually? Typically YHVH Elohim overlooks the great, mighty, rich and successful people of the world to accomplish his plans and purposes in favor of the weak, the failures, the down-trodden, the rejected and those who have made a lot of mistakes. Abraham, Jacob, Joseph, and Moses were such people. He established a covenantal relationship with them out of which came a nation and eventually the Messiah that has subsequently touched the world with the gospel message.

If YHVH can use adulterers (Abraham), lying thieves (Jacob), ex-convicts (Joseph), murderers (Moses) a long the weak, ignoble, and foolish people (1 Cor 1:26–27) to save the world, then maybe he can use you and me (if we have a little faith and willingness) to help expand his kingdom.

This is an encouraging and uplifting message that calls us all to step out of our comfort zones of discouragement and complacency and in faith trust YHVH to use us for his glory to help expand his kingdom with the message of salvation that is rooted in the Torah!

Jacob’s Struggle—Wrestling With Yeshua & Conquering Our Sin Nature to Receive Our Promised Reward

Nearly everyone knows the Old Testament story of Jacob wrestling with the “angel,” but there is more to this biblical tale—much more! In this video, we learn how the prophet Jeremiah and the ancient Jewish sages viewed “Jacob’s Struggle” as relating to end time events just prior to the second coming of the Messiah. Perhaps, and even more importantly, we will also discover how Jacob’ struggle—his dark night of the soul—is a spiritual picture of what each Christian must go through to come into a deeper, more mature walk with Yeshua the Messiah and to discover their true and ultimate identity and destiny.

In this video, we examine the Christian church’s typical praise and worship themes and then juxta pose them with the book of Psalms and how the Bible defines praise and worship. A major disconnect is exposed! Learn what the true praise and worship is that is pleasing to our Abba Father in heaven—YHVH Elohim.
